- BRAND: MITSUBISHI
- MELSEC Q
- CPU UNIT MODEL
- MODEL: Q02HCPU
- MAX: 28Kstep
- 5VDC, 0.64A
- SERIAL: 130419131180027-B
- MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC
- MADE IN JAPAN
The Q02HCPU is a high-performance Process CPU from Mitsubishi Electric’s renowned MELSEC-Q series of programmable logic controllers (PLCs).
Key Features and Specifications:
-
Model:Â Q02HCPU
-
Series:Â MELSEC-Q Series
-
Origin:Â Manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric in Japan.
-
Power Supply: 5VDC. This is the internal operating voltage for the CPU’s logic circuits. *Important Note: This does NOT mean the main power for the entire base unit is 5VDC. The main power supply module (e.g., a Q61P-A or Q62P) that plugs into the base unit typically converts 100-240VAC or 24VDC down to this 5VDC for the CPU and other modules.*
-
Current Consumption:Â 0.64A. This is the amount of current the CPU unit itself draws from the 5VDC backplane of the base unit. This is a critical specification for ensuring the power supply module you select can power the CPU along with all other I/O and special function modules in the rack.
Detailed Technical Description
The Q02HCPU is a central processing unit designed for medium to large-scale automation control systems.
-
Performance:
-
It was a high-end model in its time, offering fast program execution speeds and a large capacity for logic and data.
-
It is suitable for complex processes, sequence control, and data handling applications.
-
-
Program Capacity:
-
It has a large program memory capacity (typically 28 K steps, but can vary; please check the official manual for the exact figure), allowing for very extensive and complex control programs.
-
-
Functionality:
-
Supports structured programming (using Function Blocks, Structured Text, etc., in addition to Ladder Logic).
-
Capable of multi-task programming, allowing you to organize programs into independent tasks for easier management and debugging.
-
Features a built-in USB port (or possibly an RS-232 port, depending on the version) for connecting a programming computer (GX Developer or GX Works2 software).
-
-
System Configuration:
-
It is used in a rack-based (modular) system. You must install it into a MELSEC-Q series base unit (e.g., a Q33B or Q35B).
-
It controls and communicates with all the other modules (I/O modules, analog modules, network modules, etc.) installed in the same base unit or in extended base units via a special extension cable.

“SEO PRODUCT DESCRIPTION” Decoded
The term “SEO PRODUCT DESCRIPTION” suggests this text was auto-generated or written to be found in search engines. Key phrases like “MITSUBISHI,” “MELSEC-Q,” “JAPAN,” and the specific model number “Q02HCPU” are included so that engineers and maintenance personnel searching for a replacement or a spare part can easily find it.
Important Considerations & Status
-
Legacy Product: The Q02HCPU is a discontinued/obsolete model. It has been superseded by newer generations like the MELSEC iQ-R Series and MELSEC iQ-F Series, which offer significantly higher performance, more features, and better connectivity.
-
Replacement:Â If you are maintaining an old system, this is a critical spare part. If you are designing a new system, it is strongly recommended to use a current-generation CPU.
-
Software: Programming is done with Mitsubishi’s GX Developer or the newer GX Works2 software (which supports legacy Q Series CPUs).
